Front and rear air ride
I've got a '14 slim with a 23" wheel on stock forks lowered 1.5". Rear is also lowered 1.5". I've had it like this for almost a year. But as time goes by I'm realizing more how much the front of the bike looks crowded not to mention a lil high in the front as the lowered forks dont exactly compensate for the larger wheel.
So now my plan is to rake the front 4°. But if I'm going to do that, I figure I might as well pull the trigger on air ride. Im dead set on using a shotgun shock for the rear but as far as the front goes, I'm very limited by what's available for the softails. Platinum air sells a front system that seems like the best option out there but is it possible to run 2 separate systems? I really dnt want the headache of trying to find a place for 2 compressors. Can both systems run off 1 compressor?
I know Dirty Bird sells a full system but their swingarm has to be purchased as well and that almost doubles the price. Platinum air sells a full system too, but like I said, Shotgun is the only way to go in the rear.
I'm sure someone here has full air ride on there softail. TIA.
